·Circling back to this, we double checked our code and found nothing of the sort that popped up in your blocker, including the specific issue that is listed in your photos. Looks to be a false alarm from your detection software. Sorry for the inconvenience!
ok, i will purge history and see if I can get to the order page, unscathed

·Received mine today at the office but will have to wait until tonight to install on my FOIS. Good thing my Bergeon 6767F arrived last week. No idea what size my wrist actually is, but I bought a small thinking that I have small wrists. Gal at the OB said most guys think that but actually don't, which makes sense because I'd like to put another half-link in my 2220.80.
very interested to see pictures on the FOIS. I'm debating pulling the trigger on this version, or waiting for the "horned" endlinks as a replacement band for the OEM strap that came with the FOIS

·I will be putting mine on a FOIS but judging by the previous posts, with my 6.5" - 6.75" wrist, I may have to exchange it for the smaller size. I'm located in Toronto, Canada so shortening it would be better than having to ship it back, but as near as I can tell there is no simple way to do that, if at all. It just cleared customs so I will know soon enough.

·I can help you with that too lol
Well, if you have the monies to hand over to buy one it would be greatly appreciated 👍
On a serious note, with two watches in as many months I do need to recoupe funds for the next purchase which will be a Speedmaster, ideally 1973 or as close to it as I've decided the year will be the theme moving forward.
Need to focus now on researching before jumping in... I think the bracelet will provide focus 🥰

You can actually shorten it yourself,
this was the procedure for the original one ( I did it on mine, it took about 10mins ) but I guess it should work on this one too !

·My Forstner paring for today- a classic Wakmann based chrono. This has always been a particularly hard watch to pair with straps or other bracelets as it’s sizable at 38mm for the time but has 18mm lugs which are too small for the case size- always looks top heavy. I think this looks great and may be the permanent pairing..of course I have a bunch more to try with it.

For what it’s worth, I have a 6.75 inch wrist and love the fit. I personally like the look of the clasp close to the lugs, though. I have about .25 inches of mesh to spare and it fits snugly. Happy to make an exchange, though, if you aren’t into the fit!
